There’s a college football game with national championship repercussions tonight. The second-ranked and high-scoring Oregon Ducks travel to Stanford to play the sixth-ranked Cardinal with the winner getting a leg up to play in the BCS national championship game.
Not to mention another top 10 match up…No. 10 Oklahoma is at Floyd Casey in Waco to take on the bears for Baylor’s first real test of the season.
WACO, Texas (AP) _ Baylor quarterback Bryce Petty knows people will remember
November.
The fifth-ranked Bears also know their 7-0 start and highest ranking in 60
years won’t mean nearly as much without finishing strong in a challenging
stretch. The Bears play their first ranked opponent of the season Thursday
night at home against No. 12 Oklahoma.
These Bears are no longer the pushovers in the Big 12. And Oklahoma knows that,
even with a 21-1 series advantage. The Sooners lost in their last trip to Waco
two years ago, ending their national championship hopes.
Baylor has won a school-record 11 games in a row since losing at Oklahoma last
November.
